"Being independent doesn't mean you have to do it alone," says B.A.K CEO le'Roy Benros. The platform addresses common challenges faced by independent artists, including lack of professional support, unfair revenue splits, and limited access to industry resources.

The service launched in November 2024, offering a solution that combines distribution, team building, and funding in one integrated platform, marking a significant evolution in independent music distribution.
